Limnological changes in two shallow lakes from an urban reserve throughout a complete hydrological cycle: Proposals for restoration and management

We analysed the fluctuations of the limnological variables and phytoplankton structure in two shallow lakes located in an urban ecological reserve from Buenos Aires city (Reserva Costanera Sur) during a complete hydrological cycle. The results of this investigation showed that the changes in the wat...
